Before first use
Let Heaven and Air puff up
Open it by handKeep blades away from the fabric. Unroll the duvet flat on the bed.
Let the loft come backIt travels compressed. Give Heaven or Air 24 to 48 hours. Follow the item label before using a low tumble cycle with clean dryer balls. For Royal, use its own unpacking and care instructions.
Wake up the pillowsPush the ends to the middle a few times, then shake.
Make the bedEvery cover, pillowcase and sheet is soft and ready, so it goes straight on.
Putting on the cover
Fresh cotton, neatly in place
Every YumeFeel cover has a hidden zipper at the foot and 8 ties inside, at the corners and the middle of each side.
Open and turnUnzip the foot. Turn the cover inside out.
Lay them flatCover on the bed, still inside out. Duvet on top, corners and edges lined up.
Tie them togetherKnot each tie to its partner on the duvet.
Turn it right side outReach in, grab the two tied top corners and pull the cover down over the duvet.
Shake and zipShake until the duvet lies flat inside, then zip it closed.
Fasten the middle ties as well as the corners to help keep the duvet aligned inside its cover.
Washing the cover
Wash it as often as your sheets
Zip it closed firstAn open zipper can snag the fabric.
Cold and gentleUse a mild liquid detergent. Pillowcases and sheets go in the same way.
Every week or twoThe cover catches the coffee and the dog hair, so the duvet stays clean.
PureFlow gets softer with every wash. Relaxed creases are part of the look, so skip the iron.
Caring for the duvet
Wash it only when it needs it
For every YumeFeel duvet. Each one is premium down, so follow the down care instructions when it needs a wash. Cloud Pillows follow their own label.
Only when neededOr after a spill. The cover takes the daily wear.
Check machine capacityFollow the item label and appliance instructions. Each piece needs room to move freely. If the duvet crowds your machine, use a suitable larger washer and dryer.
Cold, gentle, mild down washUse a mild down wash, and only a little. No bleach or fabric softener.
Add an extra rinseAn extra rinse helps clear the wash from the down.
Spot clean small marksDab with a cloth, cold water and a drop of mild detergent, then blot dry.
Balance without crowdingFollow the pillow label and appliance instructions. Wash a pair only when both pillows can move freely; use a suitable larger machine if they crowd the drum.
Softer with every wash. The PureFlow shell is our custom 300T cotton blend. It gets softer each time, and it does not shed lint in your dryer or on your clothes.
Premium down care
Every YumeFeel duvet and the Royal pillows are filled with premium down and are machine washable: wash them only when they need it, cold on a gentle cycle with a mild down wash and an extra rinse, and dry them on low with clean dryer balls until completely dry. Skip bleach, fabric softener and high heat.
Follow the item label and appliance instructions. Each piece needs room to move freely.
Drying
Low heat and a little patience
Tumble dry lowTwo or three clean dryer balls lift the fill as it tumbles.
Shake it every 30 minutesPull it out, shake it from two corners and put it back, so it dries evenly.
Dry it all the wayCheck the centre and corners after pausing the dryer. Cool or damp areas need further drying; touch alone cannot establish that the filling is dry throughout. Follow the item label and return it to the bed or storage only fully dry.
Cotton piecesDry them low or hang them up. Take them out right away so creases stay soft.
What to skip
Keep these away from your bedding
BleachNot on any piece. Mild liquid detergent keeps white cotton fresh.
Fabric softenerIt coats the fabric and dulls the soft, cool feel you bought it for.
High heatIt can damage the down for good. Stick to low.
Sealed plasticGive the loft room in a breathable cotton bag.
Storage
Between seasons
Clean and fully dryPut it away only once it's dry all the way through.
Let it breatheA cotton bag in a cool, dry closet.
Give the loft roomNo long stretches in a vacuum bag. When it comes back out, a shake and a low tumble with dryer balls wake it up.

Keep that fresh bed feeling
How do I help it fill out after unboxing?
Unroll Heaven or Air flat on the bed and give it 24 to 48 hours to expand. A gentle shake helps it spread out; follow the care label before trying a low tumble with clean dryer balls. Royal uses its own unpacking and care instructions.
What keeps it looking full between washes?
Give the duvet a gentle shake when you make the bed, and keep it in its matching cover for daily use. Follow the care label for a low tumble with clean dryer balls when it needs a refresh. If Heaven or Air stays flat or develops persistent clumps, see the Loft Promise.
My duvet has clumps after washing. What should I do?
Follow the care label and use a washer and dryer with room for the duvet to move freely. Dry on low with clean dryer balls until the filling is completely dry, pausing to shake it so it dries evenly. A dry outer fabric does not prove the filling is dry throughout.
If hard clumps or bare patches remain in your Heaven or Air duvet after the normal refresh steps, ask us for help and check the Loft Promise terms. Follow the premium down care instructions for every wash.
Do I wash the duvet and cover separately?
Yes: remove the cover and wash it as often as your sheets, with the zipper closed. The duvet is premium down and needs washing only when it truly needs it, or after a spill. Follow each item’s label, and use the down care instructions.
Will it fit my washing machine?
Check your item label and appliance instructions, then make sure the bedding has room to move freely. If the duvet crowds your drum, use a suitable larger washer and dryer. Compressing it to squeeze it in does not leave the space it needs for washing or drying.
How do I know it is dry enough to put back on the bed?
Dry on low with clean dryer balls, pausing to shake the duvet so it dries evenly. Check the centre and corners, but remember that a dry outer fabric does not prove the filling is dry throughout. Follow the item label and return it to the bed or storage only when completely dry.
How should I store it between seasons?
Put it away clean and completely dry in a breathable cotton bag, in a cool, dry closet. Give the filling room instead of leaving it compressed in a vacuum bag for long periods.
